Ultimately it will depend on the property (banks perform stress test-debt ratio)-but I think 5 year term is what I found so far.

This self claimed "Drug Addict to CEO" doesn't pass the sniff test in my opinion.

so far so good one project is well and septic.. of course we had to drill wells and do all the ground tests etc.. the other projects are basically infill with mainlines already established. out west here each state is different.. in CA you will hear the term Mello Roos ..

One thing I'm trying to do is to test different cover photos to see which ones draw a greater % of click-thrus (which seems like a reasonable thing to test).I'd like to be able to view the Airbnb stats to see, for each cover photo I test, things like what % of people click through on it.

There is currently no requirement for the landlord to test for lead or pay to replace the pipes.

In all my years of Property Management in one of the most tenant friendly Cities in the World, I bet there will be a lot of interested people, regardless if they are actually planning on buying in a tenant friendly City.My management style would be considered highly unusual as I approach these issues so that it becomes a win-win situation and take into account the human element of the tenant.There is potential for me to add more to that Podcast to include how the Portfolio did over the 28 years growth period (1998 to 2025) with real numbers.There will be things like making the Portfolio safer as I age by paying off the Mortgages and increasing cash flow, etc.I'm also a Cloud Software developer (Salesforce specifically) and will be employing a lot of A.I. in 2025.The RE Portfolio is cash flowing very well and I can afford to integrate experimental A.I. to test it out.Things like A.I.

I tend to do a quick dirty look at a building like JW with price per door, but after that sniff test, I quickly like to understand $Cost/SF and $rent/SF.The way I look at a single family, 2-4 units, or a 20 unit is all different, but the end result is still ROI or IRR (over time). 

As @Patrick Drury mentioned- the West Side does not have any POS areas (besides Lakewood, but it's only needed for previously non-owner occupied/rental properties) Something else to consider in Cleveland proper is Lead Safe Testing ..

then you take the state test and the federal test to get your NMLS registration..

I generally agree that buying SFH as first investment is an easy way to test the waters; however, if you’re set on REI I suggest buying a duplex or quad.
